- 100 degree Fahrenheit second/Btu (IT) converts to 0.0277592 degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (th).
Common Use Cases
- Performing thermal calculations in HVAC and heat-exchanger modeling where power is in Btu/s.
- Converting building insulation R-values to align with per-hour heat flow units for simulations.
- Comparing imperial and SI thermal resistance units in engineering reports.
- Specifying thermal resistance for components based on heat flow in Btu/h.
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure the heat flow units match when performing conversions to avoid errors.
- Use this tool to convert values before inputting them into thermal simulation software.
- Refer to the conversion factor 1 °F·s/Btu = 0.000277592 °F·h/Btu for manual calculations.
- Combine resistance values with area data for accurate insulation R-value assessments.
Limitations
- Units are specific to the Imperial/British system and require separate conversion when working with SI units.
- Incorrect matching of heat flow units (Btu/s versus Btu/h) can lead to errors in calculations.
- Conversion involves dividing by 3600, so numerical precision is important for transient simulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does degree Fahrenheit second/Btu (IT) measure?
- It measures thermal resistance by expressing temperature difference per heat flow rate of one Btu per second.
- Why convert degree Fahrenheit second/Btu (IT) to degree Fahrenheit hour/Btu (th)?
- Because many HVAC and insulation calculations use heat flow expressed per hour, converting units ensures compatibility.
- Can I convert these units directly to SI units?
- Yes, but additional conversions are needed since the imperial units must be transformed into kelvins and watts.
